Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and contributing to Ubuntu. I wasn't aware of the problem described in https://askubuntu.com/questions/1528949/time-setting-problems-with- ubuntu-24-04. So thanks for opening this bug report.
I wrote an entry how to change the time zone using the command line: https://discourse.ubuntu.com/t/how-to-change-the-time-zone-in-ubuntu- using-the-command-line/35307 /etc/localtime is a symlink pointing to the time zone file. /etc/timezone is a legacy file that contains the time zone. Most applications will look for /etc/localtime instead of /etc/timezone. Is /etc/localtime pointing to /usr/share/zoneinfo/America/Toronto on your system? Canada/Eastern is a legacy name and has been replaced by America/Toronto. To still use Canada/Eastern you would need to install tzdata-legacy. You wrote that the TZ variable contains "Canada/Eastern". Who sets this variable? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2092236 Title: 24.04.1 tzdata wrong time zone, cannot reset, downgrade To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/tzdata/+bug/2092236/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
